VI
on Monday, June 17, at Adat Shalom
Synagogue in Farmington Hills.
He's hoping to get humorous ones
instead of those more-likely "Confucius
Say" things than actual fortunes.
FOR LAST WEEK'S Mother's Day,
wine played an important part at
Tamara's Spa in Farmington Hills ... it
was used in rubbing treatments.
A "Mother's Merlot Massage" ($78)
used Merlot wine in a toning procedure
with grape-seed extracts and oils ... to
fight aging and create skin balance.
Another vino used was in a "Crushed
Cabernet Body Scrub" ($70) with
crushed Cabernet grape seed and oils ...
to help strengthen and smooth out skin
tone.
MAIL DEPT ... from Stanley
Rosenberg of Federal Disability Law
Associates in Miami, Fla. ...
"Congratulations on the 60th anniver-
sary of your tenure with the Detroit
Jewish News. I remember when you
started that the pages were set by hand
and delivered by the mule that ran on
Dexter before the bus.
"I also fondly recall the meals at
Korn's on Linwood, and Lachar's. These
also happen to be the only restaurants in
the history of Detroit that you failed to
mention in your article.
"That you have grown with Detroit
and probably suffered numerous
episodes of heartburn make this
moment all the more endearing.
Thanks, Danny, for telling us where and
how to eat for 60 years."
OLDIE BUT GOODIE Dept. ...
from Howard Camden ... Sadie and
Yetta, two widows, are talking.
Sadie: "That nice Morris Finkleman
asked me out for a date. I know you
went out with him last week, and I
wanted to talk with you about him
before I give my answer."
-Yetta: "Well, I'll tell you. He shows up
at my apartment punctual like a clock.
And like such a mentsh he is dressed —
fine suit, wonderful lining. And he
brings me such beautiful flowers you
could die from. Then he takes me
downstairs and what's there, but such a
beautiful car — a limousine even, uni-
formed chauffeur and all.
"Then he takes me out for a dinner.
Marvelous dinner. Steak even. Then we
go to see a show. Let me tell you, Sadie,
I enjoyed it so much I could just die
from pleasure. So, then we are coming
back to my apartment and into an ANI-
MAL he turns! Completely crazy, almost
he tears off my expensive new dress!"
Sadie: "Oy vey! So you are telling me
I shouldn't go out with him?"
Yetta: "No. I'm just saying wear an
old dress!" ❑
